Smoke from a washing machine with a burned-out motor set off fire alarms in Soles Hall this afternoon.
The smoke was reported at 2:03 p.m. and the Easton Fire Department soon responded to the scene, according to the Public Safety Office. Smoke was removed with extraction equipment and the building was promptly reoccupied.
There was no danger to students and no damage was caused to anything other than the washing machine, which was taken out of service.
